here is the code

<?php
mysql_select_db('<DATABSE NAME>',mysql_connect
('<SERVER NAME>','<user name>','<password>'));
$result=mysql_query('SELECT * FROM visitor');

while($row=mysql_fetch_object($result))
{ $i = $row->cnt; }
$i=$i+1;
mysql_query("update visitor set cnt=$i");

you also need to change the username and password along with the host provider.
I am using 000webhost for hosting my blog at http://vamsisubhash.co.cc

Don't use co.cc domain names now. They are free for 1 year only. After that you have to pay for using them.

When you are transferring your PHP w/ MySQL Database to a host, you need to edit the following MySQL connection settings:

Database User Settings
Server : localhost (same)
Username : yourusername_dbusername
Password : type your DATABASE password here

Database
DB name : yourusername_dbname

I would suggest you to use cPanel based Hosting Provider. AFAIK 000webhost offers cPanel (but I guess it is limited to US Registrations) and X10Hosting and NovaHost also offers cPanel. Be sure to link your DB username with your Database!

zymic.com too is a good one. I am using it to host my website devrathnd.co.nr
